History of this land.
~~Originally taken by force from the original people by the U. S. Government. At this point the concept of land ownership which could be bought and sold was imposed on the land.
~~In the 1860's when the transcontinental railroad was built, as a result of lobbying and graft, the U.S. Government gave half of the land for 20 miles on either side of the railroad to the railroad as an incentive to build the railroad. They divided this 40 mile wide strip across the American West into one mile squares and deeded the alternate squares, as in a checkerboard, to the railroad.
~~In the 1960's the railroads were having financial difficulties so they sold off most of their checkerboard properties to big land development companies.
~~In the early 2000's I purchased 3.5 square miles from the development company, subdivided it into smaller lots and started the Sage Valley Community.
~~Because of this checkerboard pattern, almost every lot in Sage Valley shares a boundary with public land.
~~Note that we are on the southern boundary of the 20 mile wide strip, so everything south of us is continuous public land for exploration and recreation.
